I have always been an entrepreneur and a long time amateur photographer. So with my camera in hand and lots of experience, I started shooting not only my kids, but also offered sessions to friends and family. The results have been tremendous and I am ecstatic to report that I am in demand! Currently, I am on top of the recommended photographer's list of many of the elite talent agencies and managers in Los Angeles - no small feat!
I work very hard to ensure you have the best shoot with lots of great shots to choose from and most importantly...we have FUN! I love what I do and am so honored and happy that I get to meet and photograph so many wonderful people!
I am a wife and a mother to 3 wonderful teens, 2 of which are working actresses in this crazy business. I, myself, was an actress and have had many years in front of the camera as well as behind it in casting. I know a great head shot! I am also a licensed talent agent, but I just keep that in my back pocket. Additionally I am a successful award winning entrepreneur, selling my last company in 2008.
I firmly believe in helping out and giving back whenever and however you can. I've started the careers a couple very well known actors and actresses as well as helped others to find their path. So with that in mind, I am starting another new venture in addition to my photography business. Introducing AuditionAid.com.
